Plot
Cheerleader Torrance Shipman is a senior at Rancho Carne High School in San Diego. Her boyfriend, Aaron, is at college at Cal State Dominguez Hills, and her cheerleading squad, the Toros, are aiming for a sixth consecutive national title. Torrance is elected the next team captain, replacing her highly successful predecessor "Big Red" after the latter graduates. In her first practice as captain, one of her teammates, Carver, is injured and forced to sit the rest of the season out. Torrance holds auditions for a replacement and gains Missy Pantone, a skilled gymnast who transferred from Los Angeles with her brother, Cliff.
